ton of the American shipping and Industrial
league opened here Tuesday at Wizards
hotel. Seventy-tive delegates representing
nearly ali the states and territories were in

gresham Dngley addressed the meeting,
stating that the cause Of the decIiue in our
shipping trade was the revolution in marine
architecture, which substituted steam for sails
and iron for wool, which Great Britain took
advantage of because of her wealth of coal
and iron, and by fostering her shipping in
terests. Speeches were made advocating

combination AMI some local talent, the event
Of the evening occurred It was a surprise
party all around and more disguised
crowd never left building In the first
round, after a few seconds preliminary
sparring, both countered Sullivan then
made tremendous lunge at Cardiff, but
missed and struck post, where his friends
claim he broke his wrist. The remainder of
time allowed was consumed n sparring,
both apparently being afraid to lead Five
more rounds followed that are not worth
describing-they were simply walk
arounds,n neither man doing any fighting
and hardly blow being attempted. The
crowd got to hOoting early but that did 10
good and at the end the fight was declared
draw, neither man having scratch unless as
announced Sullivan did break his wrist,
which is not believed.
While the fight was going on a telegram
was received from Pat killen Offering to
fight Sullivan on the slime terms as Cardiff.

Ballots in the Two Houses Make His

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Jan 19-Both legisa-
tives bodies voted on Tuesday separately for
United States senator The Republican
nominee, Charles B. Farwen, was named in
the senate by Chapman in a brief speech.
and this was followed by brief address eulo-
CYSTIC of the nominee. johnson put W liam
r. Morrison in nomination in long speech
in which he spoke of the friendship of Logan
and Morrison and intimatel that the dead
statesman would prefer his Democratic
friend to Farwell for his successor. Several
other complimentary speeches were made
and then Streeter named B. ". Goodhue as
the Labor nominee The vote stood: Far
we'll p: Morrison, 16; Goodhue, .. and the
chairman declared Farwell the choice Of the
senate Senator Cantwell, Democrat, was
absent
In the house Judge Green put Farwell in
nomination in a highly euiogistic speech,
and was followed by Fuller and Collins
Crafts eulogized Morrison as a soldier and
tatesman, and criticised Farwell as a
millionaire, and Johnson spoke in the same
strain. Merritt paid tribute to Logan, and
admitted that Farwell was a good man, but
was eloquent in bis advocacy of Morrison.
Dixon put Goodhue up, and Lamonte, Pro-
hibitionist, spoke for Judge Mccullough, of

TIE DAILY ARGUS.
JOHN W. POTTER.
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10, 1887.

THE rival hosts at Springfield ranged
themselves under the standards of Mars
and Mammon. For several weeks past the
sons of Mars have loudly proclaimed that
none but soldier should succeed the la,
mented Logan; but nevertheless the
Mamonites won with the greatest ease.
No doubt the Martialites themselves are
largely to blame for this. They rang the
changes on the soldier argument until
everybody became tired. Almost anything
can be overdone, and the soldier business
has been distressingly overdone of late.
II takes more than the fact that a man
has served in the army to recommend him
as suitable person to represent This
great commonwealth in the United States
senate; although for that matter sOme>
thing further is also required than several
million dollars on the right side of bank
account. The senate is rapidly becom-
ing a millionaires' club. 1t is needless to
add that the action of the Illinois
republicans will not tend to make it any
the less so.

OUR NATIONAL LEGISLATORS.


WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. IA bill to re-
imburse the depoSitors of the Freedmen's Saw
ings bank was introduced in the senate Tues
day, ard JOINT resolution passed appointing
a comIaittee of senator's and representatives
TO consider the question of holding an inter
national exposition in 1892 German offered
a resolution reciting the action of Canada on
the subject Of American fishermen, and the
resulting indignities and annoyances, declar-
ing the anne violation of treaty rights, and
authorizing the president to retaIate in kind
if it shall appear Justified. The bill declaring
forfeiture of lands granted the New Orleans,
Baton Rouge s. Nicksburg Railway COM
pany and TO confirm the title OF the New Or
leans & Pacific railway 10 the lands not for
feited was amended so as TO protect the rights
of settlers, and passed. A memorial from New
York merchants asking the repeal of the in
ternal revenue laws was presented, and the
senate adjourned
The conference report on the bill to allot
lands in severalty to Indians was reported to
the house: also bill to increase the pension
of veterans who have lost both hands from
Si2 to 500 per month. 1t affects, so it was
stated, about twenty veterans. A bill to ap-
point commission to investigate the losses
sustained by American fishermen by the
Canadian government snce December, 1885.
was reported and referred to committee of
the whole. The resolution to investigate the
Pacific railways was taken up in the morn
ing hour and passed after amendment pro-
viding that the investigation shall extend
TO the character of the assets the govern
ment held lien on; whether any unlawful
dividends had been paid by the companies
what, if any, amounts had been expended in
construction or purchase of other railways,
and whether illegal dividends can be recov-
cred, The conference report on the inter
state commerce bill was then taken up, and
Crisp advocated its adoption in speech in
which he said it was an error to say that rail-
way companies stood on the same basis as
private business corporations, and that the
rates of transportation should be based on
the cost of the line and cost of operating it
Pending discussion the bill went over and
the postofice appropriation bill was re-
ported, after which the house adjourned.

Republicans introduced resolution recon-
mending that, as the presiding officer as
sumed to discharge the duties of lieutenant
governor, his name be stricken from the roll
of members, and that he be permitted to vote
only upon such questions as provided by law
TO he voted upon by the lieutenant governor.
Upon this there was a sharp interchange of
remarks between Chairman Smith and Sem
ator Winters, the Republican leader. The
chairman said the resolution would be re-
ferred to the committee on elections,
against which Winter protested. Smith
said the court had already passed upon
the question, and Winter responded that the
resolution was addressed to the senate, not

a distasteful measure to the majority could
be disposed of by the chair at his own sweet
